The space where it all began.
Springwood Heath's immersive space was meant to be a one off; that was until the head teacher of St Hugh's School saw the potential for an immersive space at her primary school. The immersive space was developed as a space to improve communication and expression and, ultimately, a space where pupils could be transported anywhere in the world.
Having completed two projects, Ben was approached by the school he had been working in as a drama technician to create an immersive performance space. This was the result complete with theatre lighting and a lighting desk.
Ben and Cathy worked with Forest Lodge School for a number of years before this space was installed. The eventual immersive space had previously been themed as a spaceship, a forest and an underwater adventure before we finally installed light, sound and projection. Now the space can be transformed into anywhere they desire in an instant!
“It’s the only time I’ve seen an entire class enter the room and collectively say ‘Wow!’. The finished space was far beyond anything I ever expected” Colin Herd, Head of ICT, Heaton School, Stockport
“Students understand their objectives and own them. The space helps develop a wide range of skills including investigative techniques and collaboration" Katie John – Centre Manager and E-Learning Co-ordinator, Witton Park CLC
4D creative was formed as a company in July 2010 - this was the first immersive space that was installed under the new title.
“We chose immersive as it dovetailed perfectly with our agenda to transform teaching and learning." Louise Mitton – Centre Manager
Generously funded by the Karten Network, this space at New Bridge School incorporates light, sound, three areas of projection, an interactive floor and soundbeam technology!
